 [[Category:]]

Swashbuckler's Cove (Бухта Сорвиголовы) - это прыгательная головоломка на юге Gendarran Fields. Сундук охраняют два ветерана Blue Moa Bird.

Как добраться

Начните с Applenook Hamlet Waypoint в Cornucopian Fields и идите на юго-восток, до южной оконечности озера Lake Bounty. От первого изгиба озера (см. изображение) поднимитесь по травяному склону на запад. Когда вы увидите Alpha Wolf, поверните налево и ищите трещину в скале. Это вход.

Это не столько прыгательная, сколько плавательная головоломка. Вам придется сделать всего один прыжок, чтоы зажечь факел, открывающий путь к головоломке. Все остальное время вам придется плавать.

For a less verbose solution, see Swashbuckler's Cove/solution. Shortcut for professions with leap skills or players with the Experimental Rifle Location to leap from (yellow cross) Right after you pass the Veteran Alpha Wolf, instead of jumping down into the cave with the Skale, look to the right and climb up onto the topmost rock with the V cut-out in it. Position your character such that your back is touching the cliff, and you are standing as far left as possible (when viewed in the image above). When in position, change your camera angle such that you are looking into the sky. Now use one of the following skills: Warriors — Equip a sword, and use Savage Leap Guardians — Equip a greatsword, and use Leap of Faith Engineers — Use Rocket Boots or Jump shot Elementalists — Equip a Lightning Hammer, and use Lightning Leap Any — Obtain an Experimental Rifle, and use Shadow Leap You will now find yourself at the end of the puzzle, with the chest in front of you guarded by (soon to be aggressive) Moas. If you head to the right you can jump over to Phil Thackeray's Moa Feed, which you can carry back to the chest, and then drop nearby to distract the Moas while you open the chest. Long route without leaps 1. Run past or kill the skale on the way through the passage. When you come into the cave with the water, avoid the chest, it's just a trap. 2. Jump into the water, optionally killing the skale inside, and take note of the gust pattern from the drake heads to time your swim through. You can also dodge past them. 3. Once past the drake heads, swim vertically down and south after the rock face disappears, looking up you should see a small triangular hole in the ledge. Swimming up through the hole you should find several skale, one being a veteran. Kill or swim past these, and the next set of drake heads (with a trap at the bottom), and make your way up to the surface, and into a cavern with ghost pirates. In this small cavern is another water hole. The way to the chest is from here, underwater, but is blocked by boulders. Take a swim down to see the blocked passage. This passage will open only after you've killed a veteran ghost on the upper platform, who must first be summoned by lighting 4 torches. If any torch extinguishes, the veteran ghost will disappear. However, since the torches stay lit for quite a long time you should have plenty of time to kill all the pirates several times if things don't go well the first 2 or 3 tries. 4. Light the torches. Press CTRL to see where they are. The first torch is on the ledge where you got into the cave. The second torch is on the lower of the two large wooden platforms. Jump on the big boulder to your left toward the upper & lower platforms, and jump down to the lower one. Deal with the pirates (or just run past them) and light the torch. Jump back into the water to get back to the large boulder. The third torch is on the upper platform. Get to the upper platform, kill the ghosts and light the torch. From up there look towards the water to see the last torch. The fourth torch is on a small wooden platform with a little house/shack, slightly above the water. Jump from the upper platform, near the torch you lit, to the nearby roof and then on to the last torch. The Veteran Ghost Pirate should now have spawned on the upper platform (you will hear a sound to confirm this). 5. Get back to the upper platform and kill the veteran. If you took your time, you may have to fight some more ghosts who respawned. 6. Once the Veteran is dead the underwater passage will open. Dive down and through the opening (some light is coming through it). It will become blocked again after a minute or two, so don't dawdle after killing the Veteran. Swim through the tunnel and up again to surface on the other side, avoiding or killing the sharks. 7. In the next area, deal with the skale and proceed to a steeply sloped rocky ramp leading upward. Approach the ramp with care, ready to retreat or dodge as rocks will fall from the roof (preceded by red circles on the ground). Once the rocks have fallen you can advance safely a few meters, expecting yet another series of rocks to fall beyond where the fist ones fell. After a third and last set of traps, the way to the top is clear. Up here are 2 explorers who are also after the treasure, which is guarded by 8 Moas. They brought a bag of Moa feed to distract them while they open the chest, but the bag is too heavy for them. Obviously, you can carry that bag and jump with it. The Moa are peaceful, but will attack if you try to open the chest directly. 8. Take the bag of Moa feed next to the two NPCs, then head easterly toward the chest in the distance about two grassy "platforms" away. If you need to, you can use the speed boost (#2 on the Magical Moa Feed abilities) to help you jump across the gap toward the chest. Drop the bag on the ground (by weapon-swapping) some distance from the chest before approaching it. The Moa should run for the feed and give you time to loot the chest. The puzzle will complete when you are standing at the chest in an out-of-combat condition. Tips Doing this puzzle in a group will simplify lighting the torches, although they stay lit for so long that there is ample time to light them when soloing. The main problem here is dealing with the Pirates who respawn quite fast. Once you engage one (or step anywhere near their platform) they ALL come for you at once, even the ones at the other end of the platform. It doesn't seem possible to pull them one at a time, so be prepared to deal with 3-4 of them at a time. Projectile blocking/reflection will be a big help here as most, if not all, of them seem to be shooters. Also, Fear, Root, Stun, Daze and Blind are all useful here, as are any heals you may have. The platforms can be tough fights if you are just on-level for the zone (30-35).

Примечание

Баг:

Иногда не появляется призрак ветеран, отчего головоломку становится невозможно продолжить.
